Being considered a professional is important. But most of us are 'old' professionals, not old in age, but old in thinking style and approach to living. Old professionals separate science and spirit and think in terms of either/or - 'you're either for me, or against me.' New professionals connect science and spirit and think in both/and terms.

The Caterpillar and the Butterfly

“From the position of the caterpillar, it’s impossible to
predict that a butterfly will emerge,” Devorah nodded. Good, she thought. “From
identifying with myself, it is impossible to identify with mySelf. The
wonderful, colorful, flying butterfly – mySelf - is there within the
earth-bound caterpillar. MySelf knows it’s there and its still small voice,
often in the form of intuition, passion and desire, is always singing to me.
But myself, thinking of itself as an earth-bound caterpillar, rarely hears it.
I want to stop thinking of mySelf as a caterpillar and more like the butterfly
mySelf really is.”

About Me

Writing metaphysical novels is my avocation. Coaching people to get, as Emerson said, "their bloated nothingness out of the way of the divine circuits," is a joy. Bike riding outdoors is an experience of the magnificence that we all have always present within and outside of us.
